Does the Marketing major actually prepare you for real-word jobs?

I'm asking because I've heard stories about how the marketing majors in college don't actually teach you what a marketing job requires and others who say the classes do help.

How hard is it to get a career in marketing that isn't sales?

I'm considering a career in marketing because I'm fascinated by the relationship between consumers and the market. However, I'm not keen on working a commission based sales job, which is what a lot of people tell me what a marketing degree leads to.
